Read All 
About It 


Everything you need to know about 
getting an education at our 
University appears between the 
brown and gold covers of the newly 
available 1986/87 Calendar. 

Fifty-five thousand copies of it, 
hot off Printing Services’ presses, 
were distributed at the beginning of 
March to faculty and staff; 

( quing students have been 

~~ ng up their copies from Faculty 
offices since the middle of the 
month; and new students will each 
get a copy in the mail with their 
admission papers. (Then, thanks to 
the new telephone registration 
process, they'll be able to sit right 
down at the ‘phone and register in 
the courses of their choice.) 

At $120,000, the Calendar cost 20 
percent less to produce this year 
than in 1980. “That’s thanks to 
automation,” says Hugh King, 
Associate Registrar, who is 
responsible through GFC for 
producing it. “We are now using 
TEXTFORM to format the pages, so 
layout is only necessary for the one 
or two pages with artwork charts.” 
The thousands of words of copy are 
diligently proofread by Calendar 
Coordinator Ilana Knisely, 
Faculties, and King (who reads 
everything twice). Nevertheless, 
and in spite of automation, the odd 
error creeps in: this year’s major 
glitch was unaccountably crediting 
a zoologist with a degree in Russian 
literature. 

phe striking cover design, based 

Janning electron microscope

Hugh King, Associate Registrar (left), makes a point at a media-oriented demonstration of the new telephone registration system. 
Some 500 students are registering this week by means of the $200,000 computerized system. The remainder will get into the act 
starting on 1 April. Hello, quick results; goodbye, lineups.

not?” 

If the inside pages seem to you 
nicer to look at and easier to read 
than before, King will agree, and 
credits the VIP committee, working 
with Walter Jungkind and Cindy 
Bouwers, with the improvement. 

But while everyone out there is 
poring over this bright new edition 
of what’s on at the University, King 


cannot rest on his laurels. He’s 
already planning next year’s issue, 
and is even now discussing with 
several Faculties improvements to 
their copy. By mid-May, he will 
have sent every Faculty their entry 
printout, asking for amendments or 
revisions—with a reminder that 
GFC must have approved changes 
in courses or regulations before 
they can appear in the Calendar. 


Gifted Students Visit Campus 


Two gifted students have just 
concluded visits to campus and 10 
of their peers will be here early next 
month. Each student is after 
knowledge that can be applied to 
his/her self-motivated project. 

They are all in grade 5 but they 
function at about the grade 9 level, 
said Betty Morris, an employee of 
the Edmonton Catholic School 
Board’s Student Services. 

Joey Blondin, who is interested in 
meteorology, learned at the side of 
Erhard Reinelt of the Earth and 


Planetary Physics Institute. Teddy 
Mah visited the Radiation Research 
Centre and benefited from 
conversations with programmer 
Larry Coulson. 

Ten students will shortly come to 
listen to Writer-in-Residence 
Daphne Marlatt discuss creativity, 
writing, publishing and book sales 
from a poet’s point of view. 

Arrangements for the various 
sessions were made by Tamie 
Heisler, Office of Public Affairs. 0 


“The next Calendar has to be 
available for students by 15 March 
1987—and it must not be late,” says 
King. “So, please do your 
homework well in advance,” he 
begs all Faculties, “and send me 
your copy long before the 16 
October deadline.”

Minister’s Advisory Committee Experiences a Brief(s) Encounter 


The advertisement was headed: “Do 
you have suggestions for Alberta 
universities?” At this University, a 
number of people do and they 
turned out on 17 March to convey 
them to the Minister’s Advisory 
Committee on University Affairs, 
the body which had placed the ad 
in assorted publications around the 
province. 

The 10-member commitee 
received briefs from such offices as 
International Student Affairs, 
AASUA, the Graduate Students’ 
Association, Student Awards, the 
Confederation of Alberta Faculty 
Associations (CAFA), and the 
Alberta Registered Dieticians 
Association. 

The committee, whose members 
come from various communities in 
Alberta, “reports to and advises the 
Hon. Dick Johnston, Minister of 
Alberta Advanced Education, on the 
issues brought to its attention.” 

Chairman John Tewnion of 
Calgary told presenters that the 
committee would meet in camera in 
April and issue a report to Mr. 
Johnston later that month.

Wilf Allan, Director of the Office 
of International Student Affairs, 
told the committee of the 
International Student Policy 
adopted by General Faculties 
Council in January. He then said 
that one of the 10 objectives to meet 
the goals cited in that policy is to 
work toward the abolition of 
differential fees for international 
students. The fee structure, initiated 
province-wide in 1976, requires that 
each international student pay 50 
percent over and above the tuition 
fee paid by non-foreign students. 
The extra charge amounts to about 
$500 per student per year. 

Allan said “the best 
(international) students are leaving 
us and going to countries that offer 
greater opportunites. Differential 
fees favor the wealthy rather than 
the well qualified and they can bea 
contributing factor to students 
returning home with a negative 
image of the host province, 
particularly when they learn that 
only three or four countries in the 
world charge such fees.” (In 
Canada, Saskatchewan, Manitoba

and Newfoundland do not charge 
differential fees.) 

Allan acknowledged that the 
abolition of the differential fee 
would reduce the University of 
Alberta’s revenues by $644,000 per 
year. 

Ian Campbell, President of 
AASUA, pointed out that the 
retirement pendulum is swinging 
toward those academics recruited in 
the 1960s and early 1970s. He 
estimated that about 30 percent of 
the current professoriate will need 
to be replaced in the next 15 to 20 
years. The AASUA is concerned 
that, should exceedingly capable 
Canadian graduates not be 
encouraged now to remain in the 
university system, foreign 
graduates will have to be recruited 
to fill the vacancies. “We either pay 
for Canadians now or buy 
foreigners later,” was how Professor 
Campbell put it. 

He urged that the higher 
education system be enhanced so 
that dependence on raw material 
and resource exports could give way 
to an economy based on technology, 
science and societal innovation. 
“Resource exports add immediate 
cash: education adds future wealth,” 
he said. 


The AASUA recommended: 

@ That the provincial government 
and the universities begin now to 
examine the possibility of 
encouraging early retirement by 
attractive financial incentives so 
that a much larger proportion of 
new positions at junior levels 
become available than is currently 
the case under the normal 
retirement pattern. 

@ That funding levels for graduate 
students be increased. 

@ That the provincial government 
place greater emphasis on 
encouraging private, corporate 
research funding to the universities, 
possibly by use of tax incentives, to 
establish professorships, graduate 
student scholarships and capital 
equipment grants. 

@ That the provincial government, 
in consultation with the province’s 
universities, prepare a five-year 
plan on university funding. 

The last recommendation was 
also put forward by CAFA. 
Spokesman Peter Heron told the 
committee that, depending on the 
area of study, it may take three to 
five years to produce a student with 
an undergraduate degree and 
another four years or longer for that 
student to earn a PhD. 

This does not take into account 
the time lapse between the start of 
planning for a new program and 
the day when the first graduates 


actually emerge. In this case the 
time required is much greater, he 
said. “Certainty of funding is 
therefore a prerequisite to any 
efficient planning by the 
university.” 

Annette Richardson, 
President-Elect of the GSA, | 
informed the committee that the 
University of Alberta ranks 
eleventh nationally in terms of the 
ratio of graduate to undergraduate 
students. To change the ranking for 
the better, she called for greater 
availability of travel assistance, 
reduction of the differential fee for 
international students, support 
funds for graduate students and the 
creation of two research 
foundations comparable to the 
Alberta Heritage Foundation for 
Medical Research. One foundation 
would help fund research in 
Science and Engineering, the 
second would help fund research in 
the Social Sciences, Richardson 
suggested. 

Ron Chilibeck, Director of 
Student Awards, and Jim 
Thompson, Chairman of the 
Graduate Scholarship Committee, 
couldn’t disagree more with the 
restriction that renders 
international students ineligible for 
provincially-funded scholarships. 
They drew a scenario in which an 
international student with top 
flight marks is without a a 
scholarship while the Canadian 
student next to him has lesser marks 
but enjoys the benefits of a 
scholarship. 

Removal of the criterion would 
allow the University to attract and 
keep top quality undergraduate and 
graduate students. “Long-term 
benefits,” they stated, “will be 
derived primarily because most 
academically gifted international 
students return home to take up 
senior positions in government or 
private business.” 

The Alberta Registered Dieticians 
Association brief encouraged 
Alberta Advanced Education to 
support the University’s proposed 
BSc program in hotel and restaurant 
management (HRM). There are 30 
such programs in the United States 
but only two in Canada. The 
program, which was approved by 
GFC in June 1985, has been 
forwarded to government with a 
request for appropriate funding. 
The program would be offered in 
the Faculty of Home Economics. Its 
(the HRM program) objective is to 
fill a need long identified by the 
Faculty and the hospitality ind 
for high calibre, well qualified 
management personnel.

Student Printmakers’ Art on Show 


“Inklings”, an exhibition of prints 
created by senior and graduate 
students in Art and Design, will be 
at the Front Gallery, 12302 Jasper 
Avenue, from 3 to 19 April. A 
special feature of the show is a 
limited edition portfolio of 10 
prints—one by each artist, 
handprinted by the artist. Even 
before the show has opened, only 
four of these portfolios remain for 
sale. 

Although there’s a long tradition 
of printmaking in Europe, prints 
are not given the respect they 
deserve in North America, says 
Lyndal Osborne, Art and Design, 
whose students have prepared the 
exhibition. “A print is not a 
reproduction,” she says. “It is an 
original piece of art that grows by 
stages, and the artist has to make 
first-hand decisions at every stage 
about what is going to happen.” 

There certainly is a lot more to 
printmaking than meets the eye. 

In its simplest terms, a print is 
made by inking a plate or block on 
which there is a design, and 
transferring that image by pressing 
the block on a piece of paper. The 
process becomes much more

complex in the hands of an artist 
who understands its possibilities. 
Using a combination of technical 
processes—photo-etching, 
lithography, screen printing, 
intaglio are only some of 
them—the artist can create the 
design bit by bit until, eventually, 
several plates (or blocks, or screens) 
and a number of inks may be 
needed to produce the finished 
print. 

When the artist finally decides 
the concept has been expressed as 
fully as possible, a print is made 
that becomes the standard: all other 
prints must match this one in every 
detail, including tone and shade of 
color. As few as 10 or as many as 
100 copies may be made of one 
print, each one signed and 
numbered by the artist. The artist is 
involved in every stage of 
printing—which may take 
anything from one to eight or more 
steps— making individual 
judgments and adjustments. If 
“hands-on” work by the artist is a 


criterion, a print is indeed an 
original work of art. 

A framed copy of each print will 
hang in the show. To produce the 
Portfolio, each student has made 18 
copies of a particular print, 
matching each copy to the 
“printer's proof”. 0

Who Designs Our Car Parks? — Part 2 


w During a recent lunch hour I drove to the Faculty Club. Lead- 
ing up to the entrance on 116 Street was a queue of cars which 
proved to belong to people wishing to reach the Faculty Club 
and to members of the general public. The cause was that some 
visitors were paying their parking fees. The lineup blocked the 
only northbound lane on 116 Street, a situation which persisted 
for some time as there was traffic in the southbound lanes. Is it 
fair that permit holders and the general public should be incon- 
venienced in this way while visitors exchange money and pleas- 
antries with the person who inhabits the car park toll booth? 
Moving this little shed further towards the actual car park would 
get rid of the problem, as permit holders would be able to ma- 
noeuvre around visitors who could then form their queue off the 
public road. 

For much of the day at the Education Car Park there are two 
exit lanes and one entry lane. While visitors are paying their 
dues, it is common to see a line of cars leading up to the toll 
booth and blocking one of the two lanes of that side of the pub- 
lic highway. To remove this irritant the whole entry/exit needs 
to be redesigned, though not by the person responsible for the 
present mess. Space is available. For a start, between eight and 
nine feet of the entry side is taken up by a piece of concrete 
sidewalk which appears to serve no purpose other than provide 
a home for a receptacle labelled ‘Sand’, an object which could 
easily be re-located. A casual glance shows that there is other 
wasted space. 

Fortunately, the folk who run our car parks seem to respond 
positively to criticism. A few years ago, in Part 1 of this corre- 
spondence, I pointed out the long-standing idiocies of the entry / 
exit to ‘N’ and ‘U’ zones. Shortly after my letter appeared in 
Folio the anomalies were corrected. I hope my optimism is not 
misplaced.

AASUA‘s Budgetary Surplus 


ult seems to me that the suggestion that arose near the end of the 
recent AASUA meeting deserves a wider audience than the few 
faithful that were left to hear it. It turns out that the AASUA has a 
budgetary surplus that embarrasses the Council. Council has also 
developed a marked dislike of the CAUT, at least in part, judging 
from the words given to it, because CAUT wants a building in 
Ottawa. The problem with the building seems to be that if its 
mortgaging gets into difficulties, the embarrassing surplus of 
AASUA may be vulnerable. It’s embarrassing, but it’s ours! 

The suggestion was made that the AASUA could makea 
donation of a significant portion of the embarrassing surplus to 
the CAUT for national purposes (could we organize a matching 
grant from a government?), such as a contribution to the 
financing of a headquarters building. Look at the benefits that 
would instantly accrue—it would do away with the embarrassing 
surplus; it would give AASUA control of disbursement of the 
surplus, thus protecting it from involuntary mortgagial 
dissipation; it would be a positive action by the AASUA, certain to 
be accepted by CAUT, not ignored as so many of our interjections 
are; it would demonstrate the leadership, decisiveness and 
entrepreneurial practicality that our Council and representatives 
seek to be seen to have; it would be a commitment to national 
action and intercollegial support that would gain favour with 
those disgruntled staff that deplore the Council’s referendum, 
which they claim is our passage to parochialism. 

The idea can’t lose. Let’s go for it. Would you take a notice of 
motion?

U/CSPF, FSIDA Extend 


Supportive Arm 


Committees for the 

University /Community Special 
Projects Fund (U/CSPF) and the 
Fund for Support of International 
Development Activities (FSIDA) 
met recently and then notified 
individual project leaders of their 
successful applications. 

U/CSPF has funded the 
following projects: L. Osborne, Art 
and Design, receives $600 for the 
mounting of an exhibition by senior 
students and first-year graduate 
students in printmaking (see article 
in this issue); M.J. Hyndman was 
awarded $425 for venue rental and 
publicity costs associated with the 
International Awareness Dinner; H. 
Collinson, University Collections, 
was given $3,250 to be used for the 
exhibition of Diirer’s “Abduction of 
Prosperine” and Grien’s “The Last 
Judgement”. (Collections also 
merited $12,495 for a SPIRES data 
base for artists in the University 
Collections and Resource Centre); 
M. Armour, Chemistry, receives 
$1,500 to cover the travel expenses 
of high school students who will be 
attending the WISEST conference, 
“Confronting Technophobia’”, on 9 
and 10 May; D. Gill, Rural Economy 
and the Shastri Indo-Canadian 


Institute, acquires $400 for 
publicizing the 9 and 10 April 
“Music of India Festival”; $5,000 
will go to R. Williams, Music, to _ 
cover the costs of producing pos 

for concerts and special events; ti. 
$3,000 awarded M. Legris, English, 
will help with costs involved in the 
publishing of a French version of 
Ordinary Heroes, the diary of a 
French settler who arrived in 
Alberta at the turn of the century 
(the diary is already printed in 
English); M. McLees, Graduate 
Students’ Association, receives 
$567.38 to help offset the cost of the 
recent Graduate Student Research 
Symposium. 

FSIDA funded two projects: J.R. 
Butler, Forest Science, was awarded 
$2,900 for two return airfares 
between Edmonton and Montserrat, 
meals, local travel and 
miscellaneous expenses, for a 
project being conducted in two 
national parks on Montserrat; and 
R. Lett, Surgery, receives $6,000 for 
return airfare between Edmonton 
and the Cameroons, local travel, 
accommodation and food, for his 
project involving collaboration with 
medical schools in the 
Cameroons. (1 


Academic Staff Representative 
on the Board of Governors 


The term of office of one of the two academic staff representatives on 
the Board of Governors, Dean W.J. McDonald, will expire on 14 July 
1986. The other representative is Dean White (Arts). 


Nomination and election procedures for filling this vacancy were 
recently amended by General Faculties Council and are available in 
the University Secretariat, 2-5 University Hall. The new regulations 
provide that one of the two academic staff positions on the Board 
must be filled by a full-time member of the teaching faculty who 
does not hold one of the following administrative positions: 
Vice-President, Assistant or Associate Vice-President, Dean, 
Associate or Assistant Dean, or Department Chairman. Because the 
second of the two Board positions is currently held by a Dean, only 
full-time members of the teaching faculty who do not hold one of the 
administrative positions cited above are eligible to be nominated for 
the Board position which becomes vacant in July. ' 


Nominations of full-time faculty members who do not hold one of 
the administrative positions described above and whose candidacy is 
supported by the signatures of five other full-time academic staff will 
be accepted by the Secretary to General Faculties Council, 2-5 
University Hall, until Friday, 18 April, 1986, 4:30 p.m. Those 
submitting nominations are asked to ensure that each nominee 
agrees to the nomination. A brief vitae of the candidate should 
accompany the letter of nomination. For further information, 
telephone Ellen Solomon at local 5430.

world’s largest collection of 
complete dinosaur skeletons. Video 
and computer terminals, slide show 
presentations and dioramas help 
lead the viewer in a natural 
progression through the 3 billion 
years of life on earth. 

The Tyrrell Museum also contains 
a paleobotanical conservatory 
which recreates as closely as 
possible the milieu of the “terrible 
lizards” during the Cretaceous 
period. A large window 
overlooking the reconstruction 
room allows visitors to see the 
experts at work.
